Hello! πŸ‘‹ I'm Kevin Thomas

I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Waterloo. Currently, I lead engineering for the Maia Chess project, where I get to work with Dr. Ashton Anderson at UofT's Computational Social Science Lab.

Previously, I was a contract SWE intern at K-Scale Labs (YC24), and worked on neural sign language translation, developing an open-source ASL fingerspelling and pose-generation model.

I also organized Hack Club Scrapyard, a global high school hackathon in Austin TX and 60+ cities around the world (C$200,000 in funding), and founded British Columbia Youth Developer Collective, a community of over 350 high school developers across BC.

Check out my work on my portfolio ✌️ You can read my thoughts, notes, and blog in my Knowledgebase!
